George from PA : 9/8/2014 6:54 pm : link

no early turnovers....smart football

All of EsPN's prognosticators took the Lions at home

SGMen : 9/8/2014 6:55 pm : link

Using bad pre-season and poor Giants OL as the reason behind their belief Giants will lose.

Lets hope they get swept in reverse.

Nice little foot showcasing done by Jaworski with Eli's drops

SGMen : 9/8/2014 7:05 pm : link

Is Jerry Starting at OG?

Great point by Gruden

PatersonPlank : 9/8/2014 7:05 pm : link

On the 2 minute drill vs the Jets Eli went back to his old style drops

I guess I don't understand why Eli simply couldn't take a quicker and shorter drops without having to change they way he is comfortable doing it. Requiring him to change the way his has always stood prior to the snap seems a little to anal IMO

Maybe some sanity and patience during game threads this year = )

And only if Lono is in full-vodka mode!!!!!!

Regarding the ESPN analyst predictions...

EricJ (formerly Tyleraimee) : 9/8/2014 7:10 pm : link

unfortunately since they are not picking with a point spread, it is hard to argue with them. The O line is horrible. The starting offense scored one TD in 5 pre season games. The offense is still learning this new system. We have no WR really after Cruz. We have no TE. We are playing on the road.

We still have a chance here but if you have to bet your house....

This is a dumb tweet

steve in ky : 9/8/2014 7:11 pm : link

Hmm wouldn't they be 5-0 if it did?

Good news for the #Giants fans: Preseason means absolutely nothing right now. Clean slate. #MNF

ESPN missed the kickoff (where Brown actually kicked the ball)... :o(

Williams

dep026 : 9/8/2014 7:12 pm : link

with a poor angle, missed tackle.

good run stuff by Prince

PetesHereNow : 9/8/2014 7:13 pm : link

2nd and 12

Eli still hasn't completed a pass this season.

BrettNYG10 : 9/8/2014 7:14 pm : link

Smh.

Illegal TOUCH!

Lord Zedd : 9/8/2014 7:14 pm : link

Yes!

Good call

NYerInMA : 9/8/2014 7:14 pm : link

Looked like he was out of bounds at real speed.

Why isn't DRC covering Megatron?

Steve in South Jersey : 9/8/2014 7:15 pm : link

I thought they were going to put DRC on the other teams #1 receiver this year.

pass rush

kepler20 : 9/8/2014 7:15 pm : link

How do you let Stafford, who's pretty immobile, out of the sack and who forgot to cover the only Detroit WR worth covering?

So much for our defense being the

Understandable

Mad Mike : 9/8/2014 7:17 pm : link

No reason you'd cover that guy, it's not like he's dangerous or anything.
